Looks like it's not only England that's getting trashed at the moment

What's with all the talk about reaching 1,000 runs?

A decent lead and declaration, then tear through the Indian top order :grin:

500 up, Cook with a double ton and still only 3 down. Declaration at lunch perhaps?

Ah, a drop of rain....

We should declare. India haven't got to 300 this entire series.

No need to be overly cautious.

Highest score I've ever seen England make (from memory) was 633 against India at Edgbaston.... Now closing in on 700. And that against the best team in the World. The previous was the declaration when Gower hit his double ton.

Any time soon, extras could outscore any Indian player.

Well, if we're going to claim that number one spot, why not do it in style with an innings win.

And I was typing, the 700 is up. Proud day!

I think the scary thing about how good England are right now is that we don't miss any player if they get an injury. We have so much available to us right now.

It's great for cricket in this Country. Although people are jumping on the bandwagon so to speak, more people are starting to enjoy cricket.

Cook didn't make the 300 - Gutted!

710/7 dec - Doubt we'll get anything more tonight, but it'd be nice to have a quick tear into the top order before stumps.

Sorry Jay, I didn't quite hear you Image
